Article Photos: Berlin wall removal project stalls amid protests1/11

German police officers protect a part of the former Berlin Wall in Berlin, Germany, Friday, March 1, 2013. Berliners are protesting as a construction company removes a section of a historic stretch of the Berlin Wall known as the East Side Gallery to provide access to a riverside plot where luxury condominiums are being built. Since German reunification, the stretch of the wall has been preserved as a historical monument and transformed into an open air gallery painted with colorful murals, and has become a popular tourist attraction.
